The Industrial League Best Nine awards ceremony took place on Monday at a hotel in Tokyo.

In addition to that, it was also reported that only about half of the players on the Nissan roster will be finding new teams for the 2010 season. The rest have decided to shift their focus to their primary jobs at Nissan.

Shota Yoshida, first year player, Best Nine award winner, and the top hitter during the recent Industrial League Championships, will be playing for Mitsubishi Nagoya next year.
